Who is leading The RSM Classic 2023 after Round 2? Day 2 leaderboard explored

The RSM Classic is not just another stop on the PGA Tour. It is the event that closes the FedEx Cup Fall, so it is the last chance for some players to fight for a place in the circuit during 2024. As if that were not enough, this Friday, November 17, the tournament acquired an extra interest.

Ludvig Aberg climbed to the top of the leaderboard at the close of The RSM Classic's second round. Aberg is looking for his first PGA Tour victory to cap off his extremely successful rookie season in professional golf.

Aberg fired a second round of 64 to lead the field entering the weekend with a score of 11-under 131. His performance included six birdies and zero bogeys. In fact, the Swede has made no bogeys during the 36 holes played at the RSM Classic.

Second place in The RSM Classic is shared by Denny McCarthy, Eric Cole and Sam Ryder, who are one stroke behind the leader. The top-ranked golfer in the RCM Classic field, Brian Harman (ninth), is T44 with a score of -5. The cut closed at -4, and 77 players made it.
